Envelopes are good.  Pushing them is good.

But - I suppose I still look at a table as being a table - and hence get
some backwards compatibility from it (especially in the case that Peter
has).

I am actually surprised at the number of support calls that we still get
that have people using browsers that are not CSS compliant - regardless of
what all the kewl web stats say about CSS browser penetration.

I have looked at your "coloured boxes" design and we will look more
closely at that again once we have this latest site revamp (it wasn't just
the template - we have replaced the whole underlying system) bedded down.
I did use coloured boxes - of sorts - to do our new design but I would
like to apply your approach top to bottom and see if I come up with a
different answer (I think I probably will).

However, the WYSYWIG embedded editors we use in CMS's still don't really
allow our content people the same flexibility that we can get by
hand-coding our HTML/CSS.  So a lot of the content that gets created still
relies on old technologies.

We have tried, in the new template design, to stick pretty much to a
CSS-based layout.
